Might just be worse than Hammerhead, although it's kinda fun to jump around everywhere and slam into people. To better balance Grasshopper I would've gotten rid of the ability to stop her mid-special, make it recharge slower, and give her better weight for more ram ability. Maybe slightly reduce her speed and change the AI to not spam her special. I'm not satisfied with this run even though it beats the previous time by 2min but I'm not about to attempt this vehicle ever again. I had one run that was 2-3min faster but of course the piece of shit, Spectre killed me on the last map.
Los Angeles:
I've rarely been able to clear this without the song looping. For some reason no matter how well your item management is, Grasshopper can only do so much for me.
Moscow:
There's an omen with Grasshopper on this map with me because in numerous cases the computer players would completely destroy the item respawner (As if Grasshopper of all vehicles needs that to happen).
Paris:
I like how I murdered Mr. Grimm, although it would've been nicer with a fire missile. For some reason the AI were fairly docile
Amazonia:
To hell with Warthog and his ability to think towards the end. Other than that, I'd say the run was good enough, although on one run I cleared out everyone very fast somehow. Pro tip: The Bridge and remote bombs are your friend. Minion fight is standard.
New York:
AI cooperated well enough.
Antarctica:
It doesn't matter how much health Spectre has...be fuckin' careful with how well he can read your inputs because he can spam faster than other machines, and fires a diverse array of weapons.
Holland:
I have no idea how I managed to do this, and it's extremely weird how I didn't struggle with previous attempts with Grasshopper. I've taken a suggestion from Codey Doerksen to load up on Homing missiles and use the Full Health Windmill area as a shield. I've also learned that corners are your friend here.
Hong Kong:
Slow, but I honestly don't care because fuck this machine. I probably would've died if Spectre was here. Do the best you can to get to the sewer section is what I've learned.
Dark Tooth:
Mediocre, and what a damn close call. Have no idea how that worked.
